Jo G.

Hello everyone just wanted to take a moment to review the Negril location in Laurel. Nothing like being greeted with a warm welcome. Kept it simple with the fish sandwich, Pattie and coco bread which is consistently delicious. The fish sandwich was fried properly; however, it could use a side of jerk sauce for dipping. I do appreciate the sorrel is "handmade" and has the right amount of ginger for spice. This location is catered more toward efficient carry-out than the dine in experience which isn't a bad thing considering they likely fulfill more to go orders. Bar stood seating is available on the perimeter of the restaurant to eat. It would be better if the garbage can/waste bin was moved opposite of the eating area. The unisex restroom was clean but ran out of hand soap. Nonetheless this was not a bad experience and I look forward to dining in again in the future. Overall 3.3 of 5 for the dine in experience.

Negril Negril, you got to do better, you guys can't be charging $9.45 for a large soup, and giving people 2 tiny , bite sized dumplings and ah set ah long water. Flour not that expensive, give people proper dumplings inna Dey soup. Service always exceptional and the ambience is clean and welcoming,

Jerk chicken sandwich and fries

I've been skipping over this place for a while but I'm glad I finally decided to stop in. The food was extremely flavorful I just wish the curry chicken pattie had a lil more filling. Other than that I have 0 complaints. Highly recommend

My yummy beef patty sandwich

Negril is my go-to Jamaican/Island food spot whenever I'm visiting my family. It's in the Laurel Shopping Center which is nearby. Although there's a LA Fitness gym and Marshalls a few doors away, you'll be able to find parking. The parking fairy is on your side. ;-D When I'm on the go, my favorite grab-n-gos are the slice of moist rum/carrot cake, homemade sorrel drink with the right amount of sweetness, and/or hot cripsy beef patty w/ soft warm coco bread in a sandwich (learned this method from my NY cousins). Always make me feel IRIE! One of these days, I'll have time to dine in for the main dishes. Based on my overall experience, the service is usually quick and the staff very welcoming. I highly recommend for you to try Negril if you're into or drawn to Caribbean comfort food. Enjoy!!

Curry Shrimp Entree
Capri L.

Hey friends! Some chain restaurants tend to be hit or miss, but Negril is always consistent! And as a picky eater, I appreciate consistency lol. I order a shrimp patty, coco bread, and a curry shrimp entree. The shrimp patty was crispy and flavorful. Coco bread was warm and buttery. O-M-G, the star of show was the curry shrimp. I could taste the freshness of the shrimp and the curry sauce was perfect. Rice was perfectly cooked. Only critique is that the cabbage was a little too soft. Service was friendly, I was greeted when I walked in. It took about 20 mins for the curry shrimp entree, so I recommend calling ahead or ordering online. They have a convenient online/phone order pickup station with your first name displayed. Inside is small with a few tables to dine in at. I recommend Negril if you're in Laurel!

Jerk chicken meal
Diana K.

I always enjoy the food at Negril. In my opinion it's one of the better Caribbean food chains. Food is always good. I usually go with the curry chicken, but switched it up this time. The location in laurel has never disappointed from a service standpoint. Always efficient and friendly. On this visit, the only issue was that I ordered the jerk chicken wing meal, but got the jerk chicken meal. Not a huge deal, but was looking forward to trying the wings.

I ordered from here numerous of times the food is always good .. the spicy jerk sauce on the side is always flavorful as well it has a nice bite to it

We recently attended an event that was held at this venue. I think it was the group's first time at…read morethis venue, but not their first time in Laurel. It was my first time at this venue. After having parked nearby, we explored the spot. One side was where you would order food and drinks (no seating on this side). The other side had tables and chairs, including a full bar, and a large outdoor area - it was nice being outdoors when the sun was not hot (although I did see umbrellas and many covered areas out there in the back). Our event had a DJ as well. The overall layout of the place was nice, where I would revisit the business and maybe have my own party. This review is more for the carryout side. At the time, we were not trying to get a full meal, just something to snack on. I saw they had several patties available and when asked what they had, there were many choices. I don't remember all the choices they mentioned, but I do remember these: Beef, Chicken, Shrimp, Goat and Mutton. I got a Chicken Patty and a Mutton Patty - never tried either before my visit here. For drink, I got a Ting and Mango Passion juice (sold in a bottle). The Mango Passion juice cost a lot more than each of the other items I got. When we got our order, the patties were in a different bag, but the employee who was on the bar side couldn't tell us which was which. It was a bit of confusion, and we had to determine which was which for ourselves (I was not a fan of that). Both patties ended up being good. I had the Chicken and another in my group had the Mutton. I love Ting - it is one of my favorites. It's a drink flavored with both grapefruit juice and cane sugar. I got a chance to taste a little of the Mango Passion juice and could taste both flavors in the drink. Not sure I would pay that cost again though. I was still glad I was able to check this spot out.

And when it comes to CaribeExpress I'll admit they shocked me at how their curry goat platter separated them from the rest of the other outstanding Caribbean Cuisine Establishments. From my first taste of the curry goat, I was highly impressed with the texture and flavor of the rice & goat. The sauce blended everything together perfectly and left me savoring every single forkful. Their seasoning game is second to none and the way they cook their curry down tells me that the chef takes pride in every meal he or she prepares. The cabbage was delicious on its own and with the curry potatoes mixed in ( which always gives the curry dishes an extra umph to me ) the meal reached the perfection plateau !!! And to top things off, they have an amazing staff that greets each patron with great energy that says, "I'm eager to make your dining experience at CaribeExpress an awesome one !" Don't believe me... see for yourself ! And they have their own ample dining area with outside availability and chill music to vibe to!!

The options were all displayed and placing my order was pretty easy... I did find it interesting that for the lunch special all of the proteins were listed and I couldn't pick one.

When I showed up about 3 minutes after my order was supposed to be ready, they had actually just received it on their end. There was some bug going on with the system. I was supposed to be able to pick my protein and whether I wanted a spicy sauce. I was able to make modifications on the spot and thankfully it didn't take long to get what I wanted.... They were out of the initial patty I wanted too. The lady said she was going to contact and see what happened... Hopefully that got addressed.

Everything on that plate hit. No complaints about the food whatsoever. The space itself is small, clean, and minimally decorated. Nothing fancy, but very well-kept, and I appreciate that. Service was good. The owner personally took care of me and accommodated my request to swap out the rice for extra cabbage with no issue. I always appreciate when owners are hands-on and attentive. Now for the hiccup: the credit card machine wasn't working, so I had to pay via Cash App. Not ideal, but okay. What almost took me out was the attempt to add a service charge. I definitely spoke up because that extra $1? Yeah... it was about the principle. Sheesh. Overall, the positives outweighed the minor inconvenience. The food alone would have me coming back. And for me, that says a lot.

An opportunity came about last night, so I headed on over there. Parking right in front of the place is limited, but I just used the parking lot right across the street.

I had called my order in about a half hour before, and when I told them what I ordered, they immediately prepared my platter.

Today, I gave them another shot because Uber Eats was offering a buy one, get one free deal on the jerk chicken meal. I chose rice & peas with plantain for my sides. The chicken was cooked on the grill--which I love--because it really brings out the flavor in jerk chicken. I also requested my jerk sauce on the side since I prefer a dry rub style over a saucy one. The only drawback was the small bone pieces in the chicken and rice. That's something to be cautious about, especially if a child is eating the meal. The plantains were also inconsistent--some pieces were hard, while others were mushy. On the bright side, the coco bread was perfect and the Jamaican rum cake was phenomenal. Whoever baked that cake clearly took their time soaking it in rum. It reminded me of the way my grandmother used to make it--absolutely delicious. I would definitely order the rum cake again.

So I prefer a beef burger cooked medium with blue cheese, mayo, lettuce, tomato, and onions. When I burger got tot the table it was dry as a board. No blue cheese that I paid extra for and the burger was not cooked correctly it was cooked well done. Smdh. So the waiter brought me my blue cheese apologized about it and also gave me a mayo bottle. Even with the burger still was not good and the patty was so thick with no flavor not even salt and pepper was in it!! I tried their punch drink which was really good but for $15 a pop in a regular water glass was ridiculous. Make sure you don't get too tipsy as they already have like a 20% gratuity added on each of our checks no matter how small or big your group is which again is ridiculous! Will I come back...maybe only because I would like to try some Jamaican food they offer. But for brunch...it's a no for me!

At heart, I'm a man that truly enjoy most Caribbean dishes ( oxtails, goat, curry/jerk chicken,…read moreroti, etc ) So, I set out on a quest to give a new Caribbean cuisine restaurant a shot at winning me over. That's when I bumped into Caribbean Dish... The name got me, yes it's basic, but the title was exactly what I was looking for. The restaurant is in a small unassuming parking lot... if you don't know it's there, you probably will miss it ( so glad I didn't !! ) The minute I walked in, I felt authentic family vibes ( something I look for when choosing my Caribbean locations ) The service was very friendly, and they cleared everything up when I wasn't sure if my particular craving could be fulfilled ( the combo I desired wasn't on their daily menu ) My sights were set on the oxtail and curry goat combo ( of course with rice & peas and veggies ! ) And when I say the goat was tender, and seasoned to perfection... while the oxtails had that juicy meatiness that will for sure keep me coming back. The rice & peas were cooked just right ( texture was on point ) and the veggies still had that freshness that brought everything else together. I love my Caribbean dishes saucy and not dry ( they get two thumbs up in that department ! ) Family vibes, cheerful greeting, and amazing food.... Caribbean Dish you just locked yourself in a loyal customer !!!!! Give them a shot and I can almost guarantee you won't be disappointed !!!

This is some of the best Trinidadian food in the area, and arguably the best breakfast and doubles. But unfortunately, and I see I'm not the only one, it is the owners that bring it down. My sister was visiting all the way from NYC (where she can easily get amazing Trini food) and I was so excited for her to try this place. It was my first time coming on an afternoon, and they happen to be out of a couple of the things that we were really excited about (i.e. doubles) and so my sister tried to make a veggie platter. He asked what she would like in it and he responded "that's not a veggie" and proceeded to say other snarky comments that got increasingly inflammatory. She called him out for being rude and he actually said to me "I feel bad for what you have to deal with, you two can't be close." The embarrassment I had was immeasurable and I felt so bad for being so excited for her to experience that. It doesn't matter how delicious food is anywhere, but if the ones in charge are disrespectful, there's a moral issue. They also forgot my side of pumpkin that we paid for. Take this information as you will, but if you do go, my recommendation is to avoid talking with them as much as possible and try online ordering/pickup or delivery. It's really unfortunate.
